The remarkable Unitas (Barnet’s Youth Zone) is looking for a Director of Fundraising to lead the energetic and dynamic organisation’s fundraising as they continue to impact the lives of thousands of young people each year.

Location: Barnet, in the office three days a week, two flexible.

Applications close at 9 a.m. Tuesday 28th May 2024. 

Who we are.

Unitas is a unique and vibrant youth centre with state-of-the-art facilities. It is at the heart of the Barnet community.

You only have to walk through the doors to feel the buzz of energy and excitement as young people meet friends, try new activities and learn essential life skills enabling them to lead happy and healthy lives.

“Unitas” was named by local young people, and opened in summer 2019 as the second OnSide Youth Zone in London.

At Unitas, they believe that all young people in Barnet should have the opportunity to discover their passion and their purpose, to find out what they’ve got and where it could take them. The Youth Zone is a purpose-built space fizzing with energy and crammed with incredible facilities. It is staffed by skilled and dedicated youth workers who truly believe in young people – helping them see what they could achieve, and giving them the skills, confidence and ambition to achieve their potential.

Since opening they have delivered life-changing support to help over 12,000 young people aged 8-19 (and up to 25 for young people with additional needs) from a diverse range of backgrounds to thrive.

The role.

This is an exciting role that sits on the senior leadership team with a significant amount of autonomy for an outstanding fundraiser and leader who is interested in further developing a fundraising function to eventually deliver c.£1.8m fundraising income per annum.

They are at a crucial stage in the evolution of their fundraising. Opened in 2019, our Youth Zone is founded on the OnSide funding model whereby the first four years of revenue is made possible primarily by major donors – Founder Patrons – who each committed a minimum of £25k pa for four years.

Now as they enter year five, they seek the continuation of this support and are in the initial stages of diversifying their income sources. They have also secured significant ringfenced funding to expand the fundraising team, and the incoming Director of Fundraising will have significant scope to shape the team around their vision and strategy. Successful achievement of goals and a sound strategy will allow for further growth in future years in order to sustain, diversify and enhance income.

Who we are looking for.

We are searching for exceptional relationship fundraisers who excel when driving their own portfolio of high-value support and leading by example.

This is a strategic and hands-on role so we are looking for candidates who will relish working cross-organisationally on the SLT as well as coaching and supporting the team to deliver success.

We are open to talented and ambitious senior fundraisers who are looking for their first director role as well as established directors who are passionate about supporting young people.

Internet Matters is seeking a Head of Fundraising who will build partnerships with the world’s biggest tech companies to safeguard children’s digital well-being.

Who we are.

Internet Matters was established in response to the challenges of safeguarding children’s well-being as they access digital platforms and content. The internet is a vital tool for learning and communication and it’s right that children have access to it, but, like all tools, it must be used safely.

Internet Matters believes that by collaborating with industry leaders, such as Google, Samsung, Meta and TikTok, alongside experts in government norms and practices can be established which safeguard children while allowing their online lives to remain fun and fulfilling.

In order to achieve this goal, Internet Matters focuses on the following areas:

• Supporting families and professionals – creating tailored and age-specific resources in collaboration with online safety experts for parents and schools.
• Raising Awareness – running award-winning campaigns to highlight key issues children face online.
• Sharing insights – carrying out regular research on important topics and sharing with child safety networks.
• Working with policymakers – work with policymakers across the political spectrum to ensure child internet safety is prioritised.

About the role.

Head of Fundraising is one of the most critical and most challenging roles in the organisation and requires a highly skilled relationship builder.

You’ll be responsible for all fundraising activities and will hold key relationships with the biggest companies in the world.

By providing excellent stewardship and engagement opportunities you’ll ensure these vital partners continue to contribute towards online child safety.

You’ll secure not only industry buy-in and participation but the funding required to carry out the research, advocacy and policy work Internet Matters carry out.

You’ll also develop and implement the fundraising strategy across core funding streams, primarily through existing partners but also:

• Grants
• Commissioned research and policy work
• Securing new corporate partners

Each relationship with partners is bespoke and highly valued.

You’ll work to ensure these partnerships are long-term and mutually beneficial, spotting opportunities to deepen relationships and for business development to generate revenue for the charity outside of fundraised income.

This is a role that affords you a high degree of autonomy with a supportive team around you.

By its nature, the work of Internet Matters is fast-moving and responsive to new issues and technologies that emerge so this postholder must be adaptable.

Your creativity will be crucial in making this position a success.

Who we are looking for.

We are seeking an expert relationship and partnership builder. You will be adept at varying your tone and approach to suit all audiences, internal and external, as well as having the vision to spot and seize opportunities.

Ideal candidates will come from a small charity or corporate social responsibility background with experience in creating meaningful, long-term and mutually beneficial partnerships with significant public and private institutions.

Successful applicants will be comfortable operating at both a strategic and operational level and understand that in a small charity, close collaboration is critical.

About FareShare

FareShare is the UK’s national network of charitable food redistributors, made up of 18 independent organisations. Together, we take good quality surplus food from right across the food industry and get it to nearly 8,500 frontline charities and community groups.

The food we redistribute is nutritious and good to eat. It reaches charities across the UK, including school breakfast clubs, older people’s lunch clubs, homeless shelters, and community cafes. Every week we provide enough food to create almost a million meals for vulnerable people.

We are fortunate to benefit from the support of major retailers, the media, ambassadors and a groundswell of public engagement. As a result, there has never been a more exciting time to join an organisation at the heart of public consciousness.

FareShare’s Strategy & Vision

Our vision is of a UK where ‘No good food goes to waste’.

Our mission is to use surplus, fit-for consumption food to feed those who are vulnerable in the UK by supporting frontline charitable organisations that tackle the cause and not just the symptoms of poverty.
